I chose the picture because it has an interesting lighting. I used background lighting, which means The light is behind the fruit. It makes the fruit "turn" black but on the corners caught a little bit of the light. That's what it makes it interesting- looking.
My shutter speed was at 1/60 an yes, it is a panning picture. I followed the basketball with my camera, so that the basketball is in focus and the people are blurry.
For this picture I chose aperture at 2 and I used the light coming in from the window. It wasn't a sunny day, it was cloudy, so it is not a bright light which is shining trough the window but it's still light enough to set contrasts.
At this picture everything was dark around the lantern except the candles in the lantern which were shining trough it and have created some interesting shadows, which were reflecting on the kitchen counter. I used also aperture 2 and the shutter speed was at 15.
